These boots are the most comfortable, durable boots I've ever purchased. This is my second pair. I work in a freezer warehouse, 12 hours shifts and my first pair lasted 2 years. They have kept my feet warm and dry and forgetting that I'm walking/standing on frozen concrete floors. I highly recommend this boot for outdoor cold weather winter boots or like myself if you work in cold storage warehouse condions. They are a bit bulky but they are solid boots. Feet feel firmly, yet comfortably planted. They also look great, I have received several compliments on my boots people asking what they are and ect.. they are on the expensive side yes I admitt that but to me it's worth it and any other boot is just sub par. This is a PROPER pair of boots Read more
Given it's only been about 30°F where I'm at currently, I couldn't wait to try these bad boys on. I wore my simple every day socks and I was so damn impressed at how hot my feet actually were. I have no doubt these will keep my feet warm and dry when the temps drop even further. The winter traction is a little oversold as they do grip, better then the AriatsI just tried by far but still don't the full grab I'd like. Shingles or rough terrain I believe you'd grip well enough to walk a 12/12 honestly but I'd still be careful on a 3/12 metal roof with some light frost or pollen. Time will truly tell. Needs a little break in period is it fits very snugly around the ankles as I believe footwear should but you definitely have to loosen up some places just to get them on. Lastly the laces are seeminly thin as previous reviewers have expressed but they feel as though they are tougher then meets the eye as I already put them through some testing. Overall 9.5/10 for a winter boot Read more
Been wearing these daily for around a year now, and they are still my favorite boot so far. I can walk in any condition without concern for my feet. Definitely will be buying another pair in the future just to have a spare. They look good and feel comfortable right out of the box. The break-in period with these are not bad at all. Some boots feel like bricks until they get some miles in them. I did not find that to be the case with these. I tossed in a pair of good insoles and i was off to work. My back did not seem to hurt at all from these boots even after 11+ hour work days. I've been caught outside in some pretty rough conditions with these boots on but always had dry feet when I got home. If you like a good tough boot that both feels good and looks good too, give these a try. I think you will like them. Read more

Reviewing a pair I bought 4 years ago that turns out to only been worn sparingly. I still like them, but I heard plenty of remarks that they are very big (frankenstein as somebody else put it), so I have not been wearing as much as I originally intended. The boots are quite heavy, but still comfortable. Not much break-in needed. They are very wide, so even I bought them half a size smaller than I usually do, there are still plenty of room inside. The bad side is for that reason it doesn't fit as well as some other boots you may have, but that is sort of expected. Despite the insulation and the place I am living is pretty warm most of the time, I didn't feel any feet sweating even on hot days, so the breathability is quite good for me. Despite the boots having quite ample room, getting your feet in and pulling out can be a bit difficult. I ended up re-lace them so that they were not made as tight, which seems to have helped. I have mainly 2 bad things to say for these boots which made me remove one star from it. First the material in black on the boots got sort of wrinkled after I washed and dried them, which is sort of strange on a pair of waterproof boots. That did not appear to have any impact on the waterproofing though. The second observation was that I found green oxidation around the eyelets when I recently inspected them. It only affected the bottommost 8 eyelets but not the rest. I was pretty sure I dried the boots thoroughly before I put them away from active use. Cleaning with a toothbrush worked, but still it was a bit surprising since I did not buy these boots that many years ago. The shot was taken after I cleaned most of the eyelets except one, but before the cleaning all eyelets developed oxidation in a similar manner. After all, I love these boots. They are so powerful that they can pretty much shatter anything you get to stomp on it into pieces without much difficulty (to the point that you may not even feel it at all) - so need to walk with caution if in a more crowded place.

Using these boots for work, they took some time to loosen up and get comfortable. Initially, the heel was tight and hard to get my foot in. After a little over a week of wear, they broke in and became easier to get into. Now they are comfortable, a little wide in the toe box, but there is room for nice wool socks when winter really kicks in. The warmth is great. Nice and cozy in cool weather, and good in cold conditions. I haven't been able to use them in proper snow yet, but in <3" they kept me dry and warm. I got some boot gaiters to wear with them as well, as 10" will only help so much. Solid construction with good stitching. I'm a little nervous of the laces they came with, as they are very thin and light. But replacements wouldn't be too hard if needed. They've held up so far, and the attachment points seem solid. O/A a very solid boot. Very happy with them. Read more
